Double hundreds in 2012

This year has been just brilliant for the batsmen. As many as 10 double hundreds have been hit. Incidentally, Michael Clarke has hit 4 of those, which is a record in itself for the most number of double hundreds in a calendar year. It should also be noted that 5 of these double hundreds have been hit in November itself while 4 of them were hit in January. Going by the current form of the batsmen and the entire month of December to be played, these stats are bound to change.
